The urine is probably to test vitamin and hevay metals levels. Hopefully it;s just a nutritional thing!

I will keep you in my prayers and hope that it's nothing too serious!! Chat Icon God bless you!! Chat Icon

Please know that my mom has a hyper active thyroid and is always tired. Her blood pressure sounds a lot like yours too and she has another issue with the thyroid that causes her body to make extra calcium, she constantly has stones (everywhere). So let's hope it's that minus the calcium ting!! Chat Icon

Keep strong. Try (I know...easy to say) not to stress yourself too much at this point. Keep your beautiful boys in mind and know we're all praying for you.

Oh shhitt Val! I am so sorry you are dealing with this.

First a heart rate of 90 is not bad, mine is always in the high 80s and when you are nervous it goes up.

I dont know why you have to wait to do the halter monitor or until 12/19 to have an echo, doesnt your doctor have those in his office, mine has done it right there on the spot for me. I would think a cardiologist would have those two things immediately available?

IMO that is too long to wait, (for your sanity in the very least), I would call another cardiologist and see if they do it any sooner? Do you have any out of network benefits to see mine. It might be worth it to pay a few dollars for some peace of mind in the next couple weeks.

Did he say whether you can just have an arrrythmia that can be controlled by medication?

Finally I am here for you. Always, at the drop of a hat. You just let me know what you need and when and I am there.

Consider yourself prayed forChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon



First of all, thank you EVERYONE for your prayers and well-wishes. It really means ALOT to me!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Second, Pauline...thanks. Where I'm going is the BIGGEST Cardiology office in Nassau County (right on Stewart Avenue in Garden City). There are 10 cardiologists there and I was referred to "the best" according to 3 of the receptionists (there are like 15 of them there alone Chat Icon ).
The doc was great, listened to everything I had to say and is DETERMINED to get to the root of the problem.
The office is a self-contained cardiology office and they DO do all the tests on the premises. However, due to the timing of my app't yesterday, I couldn't get the halter monitor then. And I couldn't pick it up today cause I have to go to a library class with Nicholas after school, so that's why I'm picking it up tomorrow.
As for all the other tests, they have to be scheduled due to the 3,000 90+ year old patients there hogging all the equipment!! Chat Icon

And the cardiologist said 90 for me was bad cause it was taken when I am totally at rest. Plus combined with the arrhythmia, chest pains, and the fact that I can hardly breathe...he said there is a problem lurking SOMEWHERE...and he assured me he would figure it out.

So for now, I wait and try not to worry. I'll let you all know how the halter monitor works out for me. Should look REALLY sexy!! Chat Icon

Thanks for all of your continued prayers and well-wishes!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon



that makes more sense. I am glad he is getting things done.

But by the way, the fact that you were in a cardiologists office alone, could raise your heart rate. even though you were physically at rest, I am sure you were nervous. A normal heart rate is between 50-100, its not tachycardia (increased heart rate) until its over 100. But I see what he means about it being too high for you.

You want me to take my boys for a couple days so you can rest. Ryan would love to have some companyChat Icon
